Clinical Supervision - Supporting Authentic Therapeutic Practice Across the UK.

Looking for supervision that goes beyond compliance? Ready to develop your clinical skills with someone who truly understands the complexities of this work?

I'm an experienced AuDHD supervisor based in North East England, offering clinical supervision online across the UK. With lived experience of trauma, medical gaslighting, pregnancy loss, menopause, fibromyalgia, and neurodivergent challenges, I bring genuine understanding to the supervision space.

Why Choose My Supervision Approach?
I understand what it's like to work authentically whilst navigating systems that don't always accommodate neurodivergent needs or recognise the impact of lived experience. My supervision combines rigorous clinical oversight with the flexibility and understanding of having walked similar paths to many clients.

Having worked across GP surgeries, educational settings, and specialist charities supporting families affected by homicide, suicide, domestic abuse, and terminal illness, I understand the unique pressures and ethical challenges you face in different therapeutic contexts. Whether you support clients with communication difficulties, life transitions, trauma recovery, or neurodivergent presentations, I can help you develop your therapeutic skills and confidence.

What My Supervision Offers.

Professional development that focuses on your growth as a therapist, not just case compliance. I support supervisees to develop their therapeutic presence, pattern recognition, and clinical intuition whilst maintaining professional standards and ethical practice.

Flexible supervision that accommodates your working patterns. I offer early morning and late evening supervision sessions during the week to suit shift workers and varied schedules. Sessions available via video, telephone, or secure messaging platforms to remove geographical barriers. I can now also offer face to face if you are local to Washington Tyne and Wear.

My Supervision approach.

I believe effective supervision is built on mutual trust and a positive relationship, with a shared understanding of the purpose of supervision, based on individual needs. You won't find performative professionalism here - bring your genuine questions, challenging cases, and therapeutic uncertainties.

My AuDHD brain excels at pattern recognition, helping me quickly identify what's happening beneath the surface in your casework and support you in developing your own therapeutic intuition. I'm interested in helping you find your authentic therapeutic voice whilst ensuring robust clinical practice.

Practical Details.

Individual supervision sessions are available monthly or fortnightly, with flexibility around frequency based on your needs. I'm registered with professional bodies and have extensive training in trauma-informed practice and neurodivergent-affirming approaches.

Supervision occurs online, making it accessible regardless of your location across the UK. Early morning (7am) and late evening  appointments available weekdays to accommodate different working patterns. Face to Face can be discussed.

Ready to develop your authentic therapeutic practice? Contact me for an initial conversation about your supervision needs. I'm straightforward about whether we're a good fit. Effective supervision requires mutual trust and positive relationships, and that starts with honest communication from the beginning.
